Food crises have always tested societies. This volume discusses
societal resilience to food crises, examining the responses and
strategies at the societal level that effectively helped
individuals and groups to cope with drops in food supply, in
various parts of the world over the past two millennia. Societal
responses can be coordinated by the state, the market, or civil
society. Here it is shown that it was often a combined effort, but
that there were significant variations between regions and periods.
The long-term, comparative perspective of the volume brings out
these variations, explains them, and discusses their effects on
societal resilience. This book will be of interest to advanced
students and researchers across economic history, institutional
economics, social history and development studies.
